Change (A Connor x Reader story based on Detroit Become Human)

Chapter Four

"The driver's license is fake," Connor spoke up as she looked at the notebook.

"Figures... Hey, check this out," Connor walked over and Y/n gave him the notebook, "you ever seen these symbols and codes before?"

"No... I don't have anything similar in my database. It's indecipherable."

"Might take weeks to decode... Keep it, for now, let's move to the other room."

They both walked over to the bathroom and both took a look at the wall.

"Obsessive Compulsive Writing..." Y/n mumbled as she checked the wall.

"rA9... written 2471 times... It's the same sign Ortiz's android wrote on the shower wall... Why are they obsessed with this sign?..."

"Well, this must be our main lead. If this rA9 has a connection with all androids then we better look into it," Y/n spoke as she walked over to the sink where she found an LED. "Its LED is in the sink... And some of its Thirium."

Connor leaned down to reconstruct what happened in the room and it only took him a few seconds, he stood up and walked outside, he walked over to a cage on the ground and Y/n went over to the kitchen-like area.

"Birdseed... It was feeding these pigeons... No wonder they're all nested here..."

Y/n's attention shifted towards Connor who, after examining the cage, stood up and started walking towards the chair by the closet. She walked over to him and followed the direction he was looking at.

"Connor?.." she spoke carefully as she placed her hand on her holster.

Before Connor could reply someone had jumped down from the ceiling and made a run for it, Y/n's reflexes kicked in and drew her gun to shoot but missed as the pigeons flew away after being startled.

"After him!" Y/n yelled as she made chase.

Connor ran after her and the deviant and he saw that Y/n wasn't having any trouble trying to keep up with the deviant, that was until they reached some setbacks. There were choices between safe and risky and Y/n chose the safer route.

"I'll try to corner it using a different route! Keep on its tail!"

Connor seamlessly obeyed while Y/n made her own way, she saw people holding a blueprint of the area and snatched it as she was running.

"Hey!"

"Detroit Police! I'll give this back later!"

Following the map, Y/n had run to the shortest detour she could find and basing it on the direction the deviant was moving on. She didn't have much experience in reading blueprints but her intuition was sharp and she could make split-second decisions seamlessly.

She followed the building's blueprints and ended up on the roof of one of the buildings. She saw the deviant already on its way towards her and she thought that it was perfect timing but she hadn't expected it to shove her. Not having the right footing and momentum, Y/n fell off the edge but was quick to hold on.

"Shit!"

Connor, having seen this, had the option to chase after the deviant or save Y/n. He knew the mission was important but he didn't even need to double think as he quickly ran over to Y/n to pull her off the ledge. Once she was on solid ground she looked at Connor and he saw rage and adrenaline rush through her.

"This isn't over."

Y/n, fueled with anger and adrenaline, ran towards the direction where the deviant was and made a perfect execution of a jump and roll.
